L4Linux is also a patch against the standard Linux kernel. There's no
patch readily available for download but you can easily generate it
yourself. When your own modifications collide with the L4Linux ones you
will need to do some conflict resolving. This basically only affects
changes to arch/x86 or arch/arm. If your modifications are not in there
it should not be a problem at all.
